💨 Abstract

Gabon's Brice Oligui Nguema, who ousted President Ali Bongo in a 2023 coup, won the presidential election over the weekend, giving him a seven-year mandate. The 50-year-old, a distant cousin of Ali Bongo, will need to deliver on pledges to diversify an oil-dependent economy and end corruption.
